Cartoons of the day: Student loan debt

As many college students graduate this month, they face increasing levels of student loan debt. The Senate this week unveiled legislation that would allow many of them to refinance at lower interest rates. Editorial cartoonist Bob Englehart suggests student loan debt obscures graduates’ futures, while Joe Heller compares it to the “freshman 15.”
